back from oa camp

so much had happened within this short period of time since the last entry. for a start, i finally completed my PPCDL course last weekend! travelling down to punggol marina early in the mornings, having to sit through 4hours of theory lessons when my brain's attention span jammed at 30min since last november and then heading out to the seas in the afternoon for practical lessons while having a tan much worst than you could ask for was... well, tiring but yet a whole great lesson and experience gained. exam's gonna be in 2-3weeks time. and then once done, my dudes and i will be out fishing and wakeboarding yeah! link training at fmps just gets better and better each time. as much as i was able to share my skills from first aid to evac, outdoor activities and footdrill with the kids and teachers, so did the lessons learnt from them especially the kids prove to be valuable. for the various people who have helped me each time - denise, nick and poh huat sir... much thanks to you guys! you finally understood how tough it was eh? haha. but seriously, you'll get the hang of it after some time =). mann, its a sad thing i've to leave this special link unit behind very soon due to school commencing. how often will i get to see them again, i do not know. one thing's for sure, i'll keep you guys in my prayers and best of luck for your upcoming CA exams!

ah yes, speaking of school, here were my choices submitted - 1st business studies np. 2nd business admin sp. 3rd, 4th, 5th tourism & resort management np sp and tp. 6th business management nyp. 7th, 8th business IT np and sp. 9th, 10th IT np and sp. 11th law and management. 12th biomedical engineering. like you can see, the last choice doesnt have any relation with any of the rest. haha, but oh wells. am i going to see any of you there? =)

returned home from oa camp yesterday dead shagged but yet with a sense of accomplishment. being a cadet for 4years and then suddenly an instructor for less than a month sure has it's culture shock... but hah, im gonna like this. hiked at bukit timah nature reserve for the 2nd time which eventually became a warning signal of how much stamina i've lost for slacking the past month. its time i head back to the gym! >.< in conclusion, oa camp was no doubt fun, trying out and learning many new things from law sir, chee yong sir and the other instructors... stuff such as errecting the very cleverly bamboo made flagpole, digging a hole in the field and cooking a tasty baked chicken seasoned with nothing else but mud, absailing down the walls of the campsite building... and of course, the many unforgettable activities we did when the cadets were fast asleep and can never imagine us instructors doing...

hahaha. but well, we did. =)
